From Michelle Malkin via Dave Weigel, Tom Tancredo has “applied” for the Colorado “conservative-thought professor” position:

I should be the clear favorite for the job, Tancredo said. Who doesnt want a slightly used Congressman, with a 98% lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union, educating their children? As for his references, Tancredo listed conservative commentator Pat Buchanan as well as the entire Minutemen organization. The Tancredo suggested curriculum would include Western Civilization and the threat of Islamofascism, English Only 101, and American Assimilation, which would replace Chicano and ethnic studies. Tancredo also plans to secure the border around the CU campus with a 20 foot high fence. Tancredo concluded, In addition to my experience as a teacher and politician, I promise to have immigration officials check every student prior to all my classes.

UPDATE: I should note that if you read Malkin’s whole post, it’s clear she supports affirmative action for conservatives — hiring conservative professors just for their beliefs.
